Human to human transmitted disease is the game of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) transmission and it had been declared an emergency global pandemic that caused major disastrous in the respiratory system to more than five million people and killing more than half a billion deaths across the globe. Besides lower acute respiratory syndrome, there is damage to the alveolar with severe inflammatory exudation. COVID-19 patients often have lower immunosuppressive CD4+ T and CD8+ T cells and most patients in intensive care units (ICU) need mechanical ventilation, hence longer stay in hospitals. These patients have been discovered to develop fungal co-infections. COVID-19 patients develop what is known as mucormycosis a black fungal infection that is deadly leading to loss of sight and hearing and eventually death. This chapter will focus on mucormycosis, a black fungus caused during post covid complications.

Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AIWS) was named after the description of Lewis Carroll in his novel. In 1955, John Todd, a psychiatrist described this entity for the first time and results in a distortion of perception. Todd described it as „Alice's Adventures in Wonderland“ by Lewis Carroll. The author Carroll suffered from severe migraine attacks. Alice in Wonderland Syndrome is a disorienting condition of seizures affecting visual perception. AIWS is a neurological form of seizures influencing the brain, thereby causing a disturbed perception. Patients describe visual, auditory, and tactile hallucinations and disturbed perceptions. The causes of AIWS are still not known exactly. Cases of migraine, brain tumors, depression episodes, epilepsy, delirium, psychoactive drugs, ischemic stroke, depressive disorders, and EBV, mycoplasma, and malaria infections are correlating with AIWS like seizures. Often no EEG correlate is found. Neuroimaging studies reveal disturbances of brain regions including the temporoparietal junction, the temporal and occipital lobe as typical localization of the visual pathway. A decrease of perfusion of the visual pathways could induce these disturbances, especially in the temporal lobe in patients with AIWS. Other theories suggest distorted body illusions stem from the parietal lobe. The concrete origin of this mysterious syndrome is to date not clearly defined.

Trisomy silencing is an important factor in curing Down syndrome. As per a study in various experiments, XIST Transgene transforms chromosome 21 in stem cells. This Transgene normalizes cell function and development upon transformation and its induction in Transgene clones corrects the overproduction of meakayocytes, stemcells, iPS cells and erythrocytes keeping the balance of hemopoietic developments. Given all these to added knowledge, our study further advanced to CD4/CD43 progenitors cells demonstrating principle proof for epigenetic based investigative strategy in pathology. Chapter basic focuses on drug discovery, delivery of drugs, administration path, dosage and frequency of transplantation. Monitor tools of MRI, MSK and PET-CT scanners. Also,the cultivation of chromosome 21 cells trisomy to disomy is relevant without genetic manipulation, chemical treatment and exposure to irradiation. Disomy or diploid cells serve to the purpose of drug screening and raw material of regenerative medicine and cell-based therapy.

The enzymes trypsin, furine and other proprotein convertases, cathepsin, transmembrane proteases (TMPRSS) and elastases play a role in the cell entry of coronaviruses (Coronaviridae). The proteases TMPRSS2 and TMPRSS11a, which are abundant in the respiratory tract and expressed on cell surfaces, promote the entry of SARS-CoV-1 viruses. For the TMPRSS protease TMPRSS11d - also known as human airway trypsin-like protease (HAT) - a proteolytic activation of the S- protein of SARS-CoV-1 was demonstrated. TMPRSS2, in turn, complexes with the ACE2 receptor, which allows efficient penetration of the virus directly at the cell surface. TMPRSS2 and TMPRSS11D activate the S protein by cleaving it into the S1 and S2 subunits, thus allowing endosome-independent cell entry at the cell membrane. Virus-based therapies include monoclonal antibodies, antiviral peptides that dock to the S protein of viruses, viral nucleic acid synthesis inhibitors and inhibitors for docking to other viral structures and accessory proteins.

COVID-19 shows an extremely rapid spreading pattern, classified as SARS-CoV-2, has become a worldwide health problem. Relating to biological characteristics of SARS-CoV-2, the new viral agent was comprehensively summarized in order to optimize the date research on this novel disease and make adequate therapeutic decisions. The structure of COVID-19 virus is partially similar to SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV and to date, the origin is not clearly ruled out in detail. COVID-19 in general shows, without any adequate measurement, an exponential reproductive rate, an incubation of nearly 14 days. The clinical appearance and the pandemic spread of COVID-19 were very similar to earlier SARS epidemics. The occurrence of SARS-CoV-2; previously provisionally referred to as novel coronavirus 2019 or 2019-nCoV (COVID-19) in China in late 2019, has induced a global spreading and is a worldwide public health problem. At the end of January 2020, the World Health Organization described COVID-19 as the sixth international public health emergency. SARS-CoV-2 is similar to severe corona viruses similar to acute respiratory syndrome of bat origin, bat-SL-CoVZC45 and bat-SL-CoVZXC21. The transmission is based on by human-to-human transmission via droplets or direct contact or stool, whereas the infection seems to have an incubation period of up to 14 days and a reproduction rate of 2.24-3.58. In patients with SARS-CoV-2-induced pneumonia, fever was the prominent symptom in these patients followed by cough. Currently, stopping the rapid spreading of SARS-CoV-2 is the primary intervention in health care management. However, health authorities should continue to monitor the situation closely.

Stem cells are the ultimate solution to treat any diseases. They help in giving solutions to the most deadly disease. The focus is on respiratory system because COVID-19 attracts that region, hence mesenchymal stem cells(MSC) is proposed to treat the disease. Clinical trials have already begun suggesting these therapeutics. They most probably will be helpful in preventing severe acute respiratory infection. A certain population of cells will get accumulated in the lungs after stem cell regeneration, to protect epithelial cells in the alveoli, cleanse the pulmonary artery and cure dysfunction in the lungs. In this review a new approach using mesenchymal stem cells has been taken into consideration for COVID cure. Currently, there seems little approach on basis of clinical trial on COVID patients. Stem cell therapy should show safe and highly effective method to cure COVID.
